Pubget and UCL Library resources

Pubget is a view of the PubMed database based around getting full text articles.
A search of Pubget for a biomedical topic will aim to show a PDF of the article in a preview pane alongside the search results, where the full text is available online for UCL members.

Note: UCL journal holdings have been provided to Pubget during 2010, but these will not be completely up-to-date.

If Pubget does not display the full text of an article, do use official UCL routes to try and locate it, just to make sure.

Pre-requisites

Any web browser which can display PDFs within the browser (rather than opening a PDF reader as a separate window)
If you are using Pubget outside the UCL network, configure your browser to accept third-party cookies (see Pubget notes)
